LC0133

The same galaxy taken at scale. Here the dishes are gathered not into a sparse group but into a dense multi-tier mass — several dozen elements, broad at the top, narrowing below.

Density changes the piece in substance: where the smaller version left emptiness between dishes, here one overlaps another and the light passes through two or three layers in a row. The spirals of bubbles lay over one another and give a depth no single element possesses.

By day it is a cloud of clear forms — many-layered, read through highlights, almost colourless. In the evening a sky full of galaxies opens from below: hundreds of glowing spirals at varied distances, the near ones sharp, the far ones blurred. From above, only the net of cables receding to the ceiling. A star chart hung overhead.

Where it works

Generous rooms with high ceilings — atria, lobbies, double-height living rooms, stairwells. The layering exists only when seen from below at a distance.

Style

Contemporary sculptural installation with a scientific motif. The message is large-scale — a piece for a space that should astonish.
